“You were all brave warriors who were loyal to the Great Qin, but unfortunately you were betrayed by your own people and died unjustly,” Mi Li paused, and sure enough, she saw that the spirits of the dead showed angry expressions. Then she continued, “You were the last pillar of the Great Qin. Not long after your death, the Guanzhong region fell, and our Great Qin was usurped by rebels.”
“Therefore, I am just as heartbroken as you are. We are not enemies, but comrades-in-arms on the same side,” Mi Li said, then changed the subject, “Who is the culprit behind all this?”
“Zhang...Han…”
The spirits roared, and the entire pool seemed to boil, with chilling echoes reverberating throughout the underground palace.
Zuan clicked his tongue in amazement. These undead had actually lost most of their intelligence, leaving only some instincts. At most, they would let out some meaningless roars, but they couldn't speak at all.
Yet, they were able to clearly pronounce Zhang Han's name at this moment, which shows how much resentment they harbored towards him. Even as ghosts, they still remembered their enemy's name.
“That’s right, it’s Zhang Han. Our Great Qin entrusted him with an important task, but he betrayed the court and surrendered to the rebels for his own selfish interests, causing the last main force of Great Qin to be massacred. This man deserves to die!” Mi Li said emphatically.
Zu An frowned slightly. In fact, he still felt some sympathy for Zhang Han. He could have been a hero of Qin who could turn the tide, but because of the framing of his political enemies in the court, he was afraid that he would die whether he won or lost. As a result, he made a mistake and chose to surrender, becoming a sinner of Qin for all time.
As for the massacre of 200,000 Qin soldiers, it wasn't his idea either; it's just a pity that he couldn't stop it at that time.
One wrong step leads to another, and eventually there's no turning back.
Of course, while he sympathized, Zu'an wouldn't be so tactless as to say such things at this time. He simply stood aside and watched how Mi Li would handle the situation.
“Just now, I personally executed Zhang Han, that traitor, avenging Qin and you all.” As she spoke, Mi Li winked at Zu An, telepathically instructing him to throw his armor and spear into the pool. “These are his helmet and weapons!”
Zuan was somewhat reluctant to part with them. Whether it was the spear or the helmet, their glossy black color and imposing weight indicated that they were no ordinary items. If they were to circulate outside, they would definitely cause countless forces to vie for them. It would be such a pity to just throw them away.
However, seeing countless spirits staring straight at him, he felt a little apprehensive. He had originally thought about whether he could use this to lure them up, but he was worried that it would affect Mi Li's plan. In the end, he reluctantly gave up this suicidal plan.
When Zhang Han's helmet and spear were thrown into the pool, the undead seemed to go mad, rushing forward desperately. They saw the two items as if they saw Zhang Han, and they opened their mouths to bite at them.
Zuan was dumbfounded. "This is actually possible?"
You should know that whether it's Zhang Han's spear or his helmet, their quality is in no way inferior to the Tai'a sword of today. You think you can bite such divine weapons with your teeth?
But what shocked him even more was what happened next, because not long after, the spear and helmet began to disappear at a visible rate, until finally, not a trace remained.
Zuan: "..."
After devouring Zhang Han's helmet and weapons, the angry undead became much calmer than before, and many of them even showed a sense of peace on their faces.
Taking this opportunity, Mi Li said, "You were turned into vengeful spirits because of your hatred for Zhang Han. Now that Zhang Han is dead, are you willing to continue to exist like this, neither alive nor dead, and never be reborn?"
Upon hearing those words, countless spirits displayed expressions of confusion and struggle, clearly suffering from their inability to find peace.
"Your obsessions have lasted so long, it's time to let them go. Let go of everything and be reincarnated," Mi Li said, pressing her advantage. "I will lend you a hand. A gate to rebirth will appear here in a moment. Step through this gate and you will be ready for your next life."
Zu'an was watching the play when suddenly he heard a series of incantations. Mi Li transmitted her voice, saying, "Activate your second level of the 'Primordial Chaos Scripture' to mobilize the primordial energy, and then perform the 'Rebirth Mantra' in this way..."
Zu'an dared not delay and hurriedly did as instructed, while simultaneously mobilizing the primordial energy of heaven and earth, muttering to himself, "Dust to dust, ashes to ashes, this is not my home, what should not remain should not remain..."
As her voice rang out, a large white gate suddenly appeared in the void. At first, it was only the size of a palm, but as the incantation was recited, the gate grew larger and larger, eventually reaching a height of several meters. The entire gate exuded an unusual sense of holiness and magnificence.
Zuan's eyes widened in disbelief. The effect was so cool! If he could use it to show off, wouldn't everyone worship him?
He hurriedly looked at Mi Li; this woman was truly mysterious, knowing so many amazing things.
To his surprise, Mi Li had already disappeared.
Has she left me?
Zuan felt empty inside and suddenly became extremely disappointed.
Such a beautiful empress, and we just missed out...
Mi Li: "..."
Anger from Mi Li +555!
"What a lecherous, shameless, and despicable scoundrel!"
Instead of being angry, Zu'an was delighted: "You're still here? You scared me to death! Where did you go?"
"Nonsense, of course I went back to the Tai'a Sword. Once the Gate of Rebirth opens, if I were still outside in the form of a soul, would I be waiting to be purified?" Mi Li's annoyed voice came.
